Mostly hot all year, although December and January are very pleasant. The houses on Carretera Sur are on a hill with a nice breeze. The rainy season is not that wet, the dry season is very dry. - Apr 2018


Hot and dry (around Dec-May) or hot and wet (mid-May until Dec.) The temperature rarely drops below 80 degrees, except in the mountains. Air conditioning is scarce around town. This is not a great post for those who are especially sensitive to heat. - Mar 2012


It is 85 to 90 degrees F all year round. Rainy season starts in April and goes through November. It's a bit hotter in the rainy season than in the dry season. April and May tend to be a bit humid, maybe 50% until the rainy season really gets underway. Normally it's probably 10 to 30% humidity, very reasonable. It's normally breezy so in the shade it is lovely. Though the sun is very strong. - Mar 2011
